The team also focused on oral and dental health, offering examinations and treatment plans to the local residents. Educational efforts were made to address smoking and alcohol risks among adolescents and community members through the distribution of Nepali-language leaflets. Additionally, medical support was extended to three schools where clinics were set up, and CPR workshops were conducted for teachers and students. Emphasizing personal hygiene and environmental cleanliness, the mission highlighted the importance of proper waste disposal to enhance community health and well-being.
